Filtering might be an issue, or not depending on your views of car crushing

Seen these before and they look a right laugh. One with the tracks extended backwards a bit would kick rse in hillclimbs!

Why does it have a front wheel

yorkie_chris · 14-05-09, 04:56 PM

For steering "normal" corners, they brake the tracks to go around tight turns. Has a normal diff for shallow turns.

You'd think all the weight would be on the tracks and the front wheel would just be dragged whatever way the tracks were going
